Each year, the NSW Department of Education require schools to complete the Check In Assessments in late Term 3. These are reading and numeracy assessments that are conducted with Years 3-6. Year 6 students also complete a writing assessment.
This week, students in Years 3-6 will complete these assessments in regular class time, while Year 2 students will work in the Wubaray room during these times.
These assessments are extremely valuable for many reasons, including giving teachers a point-in-time snapshot of students' strengths and areas for development. They also provide a great opportunity for students to practice online assessments, which become increasingly common as students progress through NAPLAN in years 3, 5, 7, and 9, then onto the HSC.
Wednesday and Thursday morning from 8.35am. Parent helpers are always needed. Please speak to Vicki (P&C President) if you would like to help.
Please make sure you sign in on the iPad in the office before helping. Many thanks to Woolworths and the Food Bank for helping us again this year with food donations.
The canteen is now open on a Tuesday! Next canteen day is Tuesday, September 1.
